This is one of the nicer-looking pages, I think.

Obviously, this is an English-speaking country where the kids are learning Yiddish, otherwise you wouldn’t be mixing it so obviously. Right?
I love the last bit. *FUME* Hee hee hee.

I kept looking at that first frame, I keep expecting to see Max and the wild things!

Yochva,
Perhaps it takes place in a Yiddish speaking country, but is intended for an English speaking audience.
The fact that the characters come across as code-switching could indicate either. I think it’s notable that they use Yiddish for figurative speech, and I suspect it means it’s there for flavor, and not to indicate the dominant language of the setting.
Either way, it’s a lot of fun to read.

Thanks for the compliments, everyone! I’m very fond of this page, which was loads of fun to draw.
As far as language goes, what language the characters are speaking will be made clear before the end of this storyline. :-)
